Couldn't resist mentioning the recently opened memorial to Flodden.
More at the 1513 Club's website, which presumably they'll update when they're sober http://www.flodden1513club.com/.
The monument features a claymore, with the blade pointing to the battlefield and the handle pointing out the direction the Earl of Home and his men took, if you believe such stuff.
Meantime, here's a pic of Rob and Duncan with Frank in the foreground.
History, or dodgy nationalist shrine? We'll let you be the judge. But they've fought wars in the Balkans over less.
Here's the report from the Beeb: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/south_of_scotland/5335632.stm
